CRITICAL DEGREE OF SATURATION: A TOOL FOR ESTIMATING THE FROST RESISTANCE OF BUILDING MATERIALS
BY USING THE CONCEPT OF DEGREE OF SATURATION, THE DEFECTIVE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE RESULTS OF LABORATORY EXPERIMENTS AND THE BEHAVIOR OF THE TESTED MATERIAL IN PRACTICE AND THE DIFFICULTIES OF THE CHOICE BETWEEN DIFFERENT MATERIAL WITH REGARD TO FROST RESISTANCE CAN BE PREVENTED TO A GREAT EXTENT. IT IS ALSO SHOWN HOW THIS CONCEPT CAN BE USED IN DEALING WITH THE FROST RESISTANCE OF A LAYERED CONSTRUCTION. A LABORATORY TEST FOR DETERMINATION OF FROST RESISTANCE IS DESCRIBED. /AUTHOR/
